Fresno County, California is the largest agricultural producing county in the country and almonds are an important crop with more than 99,000 acres harvested. Each acre produces about a ton of almonds and sold at a price of $4300 a ton. The Sagardia Brothers grew 600 acres of almonds . How many tons would the brothers sell if they priced the almonds at $4500 a ton?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0 ton

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states that 99,000 acres are harvested. This suggest that there are plenty sellers of almonds.The Sagardia Brothers grew 600 acres of almonds. this is a small percentage of the total output of almonds. This suggests that the market for almonds is perfectly competitive.

In this type of market, if the price of a seller is above equilibrium price, zero units of the commodity would be bought. This is because the goods sold are homogenous and buyers can easily purchase from other buyers that sell at the market price

A researcher surveys middle-school students on their study habits. She finds that in a random sample of 28 middle-school students, the mean amount of time that they spend working on the computer each night is 2.4 hours with a standard deviation of 0.92 hours. She uses the sample statistics to compute a 95% confidence interval for the population mean - the the mean amount of time that all middle-school students spend working on the computer each night. What is the margin of error for this confidence interval

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error is  [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 0.92}{\sqrt{28 } }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  [tex]n = 28[/tex]

     The  sample  mean is  [tex]\= x = 2.4 \ hr[/tex]

      The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.92 \ hr[/tex]

     

Given that the confidence level is 95% the the level of significance can be evaluated as

             [tex]\alpha = 100 -95[/tex]

            [tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]

             [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table,the value is  [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.05}{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

           [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 0.92}{\sqrt{28 } }[/tex]

         [tex]E = 0.3408[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

from the expression,

5x + 3( y + 4x² + 3x ) + 2( y - x² ) = 14x + 10x² + 5y

Open brackets with 3 and 2

5x + 3y  + 12x² + 9x  + 2y - 2x²

Now collect like terms

Answers

Answer:

Option (D)

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since point E is in the mid of the segment DF,

Therefore, by the Segment addition postulate,

DF = DE + EF

Since DF = (8x - 3), DE = (x - 3) and EF = (6x + 5)

By substituting these values in the given postulate,

(8x - 3) = (x - 3) + (6x + 5)

8x - 3 = (x + 6x) + (5 - 3)

8x - 3 = 7x + 2

8x - 7x = 3 + 2

x = 5

Therefore, x = 5 will be the answer.

please help. urgent. calculate the value of: E= x^3+1/x^3 if 1/x+x=4
(picture below)

Answers

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We see if we cube both sides of the second equation, then it looks more similar to the first equation (E = x^3 + 1/x^3)

(1/x + x)^3 = 4^3

1/x^3 + 3/x + 3x + x^3 = 64

2. Now we rearrange, because we see x^3 + 1/x^3 in the first equation in this equation

x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3x + 3/x = 64

3. We look at 3x + 3/x and see that it looks like the second equation, so we try factoring it

x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3(x + 1/x) = 64

we know x + 1/x = 4, so 3(x + 1/x) = 12

x^3 + 1/x^3 +12 = 64

4. Now we subtract and get our answer

x^3 + 1/x^3 = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 5 discs, 6 jump ropes, 3 balls, and 12 pieces of sidewalk chalk in a bin. If two items are drawn at random without replacement, what is the probability that both items removed are not jump ropes?

Answers

Answer: 0.584

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

5 discs

6 jump ropes

3 balls

12 pieces of sidewalk.

5 + 6 + 3 + 12 = 26

If all of them have exactly the same probability of being removed, then:

in the first selection, we do not want to remove a jump rope, so we can remove one disc, one ball or one piece of sidewalk.

The total number of those objects is:

5 + 3 + 12 = 20.

Then the probability of removing one of those objects is:

P1 = 20/26 = 0.769

Now in the second selection, we have the same situation, but now we have 25 objects in total, and because in the previous selection we removed one ball, or one disc, or one piece of sidewalk, the total number of these things now is 19.

So the probability of removing another object of that set is:

P2 = 19/25 = 0.76

The joint probability is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, so we have:

P = P1*P2 = 0.769*0.76 = 0.584

85 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 64

Best fit line:

ý = -0.363x +94.5

For someone who spent 36 minutes playing video games, the predicted number of minutes spent with family according to the best fit line will be:

Here number of minutes playing video games '36' is the independent variable

ý is the dependent or predicted variable ;

94.5 is the intercept

ý = -0.363(36) +94.5

ý = −13.068 + 94.5

ý = 81.432 minutes

Let A= {1 , 2 , 3 , ... ... ...... , 10} and R = {(a, b): a ∈ A , b ∈ A and a + 2b = 10} Find the domain and range of R.

Answers

In domain and range of a relation, if R be a relation from set A to set B, then

• The set of all first components of the ordered pairs belonging to R is called the domain of R.

Thus, Dom(R) = {a ∈ A: (a, b) ∈ R for some b ∈ B}.

• The set of all second components of the ordered pairs belonging to R is called the range of R.

Thus, range of R = {b ∈ B: (a, b) ∈R for some a ∈ A}.

Therefore, Domain (R) = {a : (a, b) ∈ R} and Range (R) = {b : (a, b) ∈ R}

Answers

Answer:

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

Step-by-step explanation:

We must evaluate the differences of the means of the two machines, to do so, we will assume a CI  of 95%, and as the interest is to find out if the new machine has better performance ( machine has a bigger efficiency or the new machine produces more units per unit of time than the old one) the test will be a one tail-test (to the left).

New machine

Sample mean                  x₁ =    25

Sample variance               s₁  = 27

Sample size                       n₁  = 45

Old machine

Sample mean                    x₂ =  23  

Sample variance               s₂  = 7,56

Sample size                       n₂  = 36

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis                         H₀             x₂  -  x₁  = d = 0

Alternative hypothesis             Hₐ            x₂  -  x₁  <  0

CI = 90 %  ⇒  α =  10 %     α = 0,1      z(c) = - 1,28

To calculate z(s)

z(s)  =  ( x₂  -  x₁ ) / √s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂

s₁  = 27     ⇒    s₁²  =  729

n₁  = 45    ⇒   s₁² / n₁    = 16,2

s₂  = 7,56   ⇒    s₂²  = 57,15

n₂  = 36     ⇒    s₂² / n₂  =  1,5876

√s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂  =  √ 16,2  + 1.5876    = 4,2175

z(s) = (23 - 25 )/4,2175

z(s)  =  - 0,4742

Comparing z(s) and  z(c)

|z(s)| < | z(c)|  

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine
